The China Study

The China Study describes a monumental survey of diet and death rates from cancer in more than 2,400 Chinese counties and the equally monumental efforts to explore its significance and implications for nutrition and health.

By any measure, America's health is failing. We spend far more, per capita, on health than any other society in the world, and yet two-thirds of Americans are overweight, and more than 15 million Americans have diabetes. We fall prey to heart disease as often as we did thirty years ago. The War on Cancer, launched in the 1970's, has been a miserable failure. Half of all Americans have a health problem that requires taking a prescription drug every week, and more than 100 million Americans have high cholesterol.

To make matters worse, we are leading our youth down a path of disease earlier and earlier in their lives. One-third of the children in this country are overweight or at risk of becoming overweight. Our kids are increasingly falling prey to a form of diabetes that used to be seen only in adults, and children now take more prescription drugs than every before.

These issues all come down to three things: breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The China Study presents a clear and concise message of hope as it dispells a multitude of health myths and misinformation: if you want to be healthy, change your diet.

Now many years later not much has changed! He still believes in the two rules he posted on his cubicle while working on eWorld at Apple Computer in 1994:
Rule #1: The Internet is Everything!
Rule #2: If the Internet is NOT Everything; Refer to Rule #1
And, Yes, I am open minded! :-)
